Currently I have a customer that need to use maps to show his own data in different BI clients like web Intelligence,Crystal Reports and Xcelsius

 

My questions:

 

1. Do we have a direct integration between BusinessObjects and Esri maps?If so what is the BI clients (like web intelligence,Crystal and so on) can use them?

2.  Is this coming for free of cost?

3. What is the other third parties that provide this integration?

User for SAP HANA connection in BI 4.1

$

Dear Experts

 

I have a OLAP connection against HANA, the connection was working fine but the user that was set in the connection was removed from HANA studio (nobody knew)  and now we are facing some issues to access the cubes.

I have setup another user but it doesn't work because I think that is missing to add some permissions to the user for HANA.

 

I am using pre-defined authentication and when I use SYSTEM user it works perfectly.

 

In this context, my questions are:

 

1. Is a good practice to set the SYSTEM user for these connections?  I don't know if  setting the SYSTEM user,    I am having any security or any other issue in a future.

 

2. If  Question 1 is no,  What are the permissions that I have to add to the user from HANA Studio?

 

I look forward any suggestion,

 

Thanks

Hi guys

Being a BO administrator, I want to install SAP Predictive analytics to try it out myself before rolling it out to the wider business. But I am just confused which one to install? I want to test this tool with our existing universes /Webi reports...

 

I downloaded both of them - Client and Desktop but none of these give me the option to create a new data source from our existing Data warehouse connections...

 

We are on SAP 4.1 SP 3

web intelligence instance size differ in 3.1 and 4.1

$

Hi,

 

 

We are migrating the Webi reports from BO XI 3.1 to BI 4.1, the report size remains same, however when scheduled the instance size is reduced drastically in 4.1. the source database is same.

 

 

Please find the below details:

 

 

Source Information:

 

BO version: BO XI 3.1 SP7

OS: Windows server 2003

Reporting database: Oracle 11g R2

Report type: Web Intelligence Report

 

 

Destination information:

 

BO version: BI 4.1 SP5

OS: Windows server 2008 R2

Reporting database: Oracle 11g R2

Report type: Web Intelligence Report

 

Issue: We have used UMT to migrate the webi reports from 3.1 to 4.1 (No instances). The report size remains same in both the environments. However when we schedule the report on 3.1  as well as 4.1 the instance size differs (in 3.1 instance size is 340 MB and in 4.1 the instance size is 24 MB).

The reports are connecting to same DB in 3.1 as well as 4.1. Number of row count also remains same.

 

 

Issue is occurring with all the migrate webi reports.

 

Kindly suggest. Thank you

 

 

Regards,

Nivi

Manual AD not working for users in Non-Default Domain

$

Hi Experts,

 

Users in the Default domain (D.CHILD1.PARENT.COM) are able to login manually using Windows AD.

But users in others domains (eg : A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM) are not able to login using manual AD. They are getting the below error :

Error.PNG

I see the below error in tomcat logs (stdout.log)

TC Logs.PNG

User Entered name : xyz@A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM

[Krb5LoginModule] authentication failed 111.A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM

Strange thing is : "111" kdc server belongs to PARENT.COM, but in the error it is showing "A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM"


Forest structure :

PARENT.COM

-CHILD1.PARENT.COM

    -A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM (trying to make it work for user in this domain first)

    -B.CHILD1.PARENT.COM

    -C.CHILD1.PARENT.COM

    -D.CHILD1.PARENT.COM (Default)

-CHILD2.PARENT.COM

-CHILD3.PARENT.COM

    -E.CHILD3.PARENT.COM

    -F.CHILD3.PARENT.COM

 

krb5.ini (trying to make it work for users of A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM & D.CHILD1.PARENT.COM)

 

 

dummykrb5.PNG

 

So, when a user of domain D.CHILD1.PARENT.COM logs in manually, it works

When a user of domain A.CHILD1.PARENT.COM logs in, it gives above error message. Tomcat logs are also attached above.

 

NOTE : Service account is also from the default domain : D.CHILD1.PARENT.COM

 

Kindly help us in fixing this issue. Thanks.

Hello!

 

I'm trying to generate a biar file for a BI 3.1 SP 01 plateforme using the import wizard tool. However. every time we attempt to create the biar with all the data, the Wizard crashes.  In the plateforme we have Windows AD and Enterprise authentication (I say this given the final line of the trace file below).

 

I have created a biar with the universes but if i try to add something more  the wizard crashes. (I already tried to create the biar without the users but i have the same result )

 

 

The trace file looks like:

Hi,

 

We are facing an issue while installing a Patch update for SAP BI 4.1 SP6 (Client Tools), the patch update is Patch 3. Till installation of the BI4.1 SP6 we didn't face any issues. But when we start installing the Patch 3 update, the system  started getting hang in between and not moving further to complete the installation. We have to force to stop this installation. Once we stop the installation, the whole of BI 4.1 gets uninstalled from the system.

 

I want to let you know that we are maintaining BO 3.1 client tools in parallel in the same system.

 

Can anybody help us to resolve this issue.

Business Objects 4.1 SharePoint 2013 Integration

Hello everyone,

 

My company has upgraded our SharePoint environment to 2013 (SP2013), and they're now interested in BOXI-SP integration. Does anyone know if the Business Objects Enterprise 4.1 S2 platform is compatible with the SharePoint 2013 platform? I read the supported platforms and it still shows 2010. However, I read a few other posts that say it may work and that official support was supposed to be available by now.

 

I am trying to confirm that Business Objects 4.1 SharePoint 2013 Integration does or does not yet exist.

 

thank you

BI 4.1 SP6 Load Testing with JMeter

$

Hi all, we are using BI 4.1 SP6 version of Business Objects and were planning to use JMeter for load testing. I have gone through this document by James Raap (very useful and nice document) http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-45507    .  But , when I record my scripts with JMeter Tool, I am not getting the exact information that this article talks about. for eg:


1) I don't see an option "HTTP Proxy Server, but see "HTTP(s) Test Script Recorder" under Add->Non-Test Elements. I am guessing this could be a JMeter version specific Change and "HTTPS(S) Test Script Record" is latest , we should be using in place of HTTP Proxy. Hope I 'm thinking correctly here


2) Following "Performance Testing in BI 4.1" article mentioned in same document,  I don't get a request "ViewDocument.jsp" to look for "sEntry" string like it talks in this article. I don't see "sEntry" anywhere in the script file (jmx) if I open this in notepad and search. what am I missing? I am trying to browse to a web intelligence document and right click and VIEW and then do a "REFRESH" in the View mode and close the document.


I might find more differences, but for now I am stuck at getting sEntry or Viewdocument.jsp in my request list. Any help you can provide in identifying what's the issue, would be a great help


Thanks

I have downloaded the latest version of the BI Client Tools. When I unpack it and go to install it by running setup.exe nothing happens. I have full admin access to my machine. I don't see any failures in the logs. No error pops up or anything for that matter.

 

Do I need to uninstall the currently installed client tools first?
